Abstract. Parison wall thickness electro-hydraulic control system is the core of parison wall thickness control for large scale blow molding machine. In order to ensure the equalization of the wall thickness for the hollow products and to save material, in this paper analyzed the project of the parison wall thickness electro-hydraulic control system for blow molding machine and designed the parison wall thickness electro-hydraulic positional closed-loop control system which adopted the high performance proportional valve. Through simulation analysis and experiment, it was proved that through positional feedback control of the core of high performance proportional valve, the response frequency of the electro-hydraulic proportional valve can be improved so as to improve the dynamic quality of the system, achieved the requirement for higher control precision and dynamic response and satisfied the requirement for fast speed and control precision for plastic extrusion-blow hollow molding machine. It can be seen that it is effective to adopt the closed-loop control strategy for Parison wall thickness electro-hydraulic control system and more important, it has operation significance for improving the quality and ensure the precision of the products.

The objective of this research is to develop a closed-loop control system for robotic friction stir welding (FSW) that simultaneously controls force and temperature in order to maintain weld quality under various process disturbances. FSW is a solid-state joining process enabling welds with excellent metallurgical and mechanical properties, as well as significant energy consumption and cost savings compared to traditional fusion welding processes. During FSW, several process parameter and condition variations (thermal constraints, material properties, geometry, etc.) are present. The FSW process can be sensitive to these variations, which are commonly present in a production environment; hence, there is a significant need to control the process to assure high weld quality. Reliable FSW for a wide range of applications will require closed-loop control of certain process parameters. A linear multi-input-multi-output process model has been developed that captures the dynamic relations between two process inputs (commanded spindle speed and commanded vertical tool position) and two process outputs (interface temperature and axial force). A closed-loop controller was implemented that combines temperature and force control on an industrial robotic FSW system. The performance of the combined control system was demonstrated with successful command tracking and disturbance rejection. Within a certain range, desired axial forces and interface temperatures are achieved by automatically adjusting the spindle speed and the vertical tool position at the same time. The axial force and interface temperature is maintained during both thermal and geometric disturbances and thus weld quality can be maintained for a variety of conditions in which each control strategy applied independently could fail.

AbstractTo improve cell vitality, sufficient oxygen supply is an important factor. A deficiency in oxygen is called Hypoxia and can influence for example tumor growth or inflammatory processes. Hypoxia assays are usually performed with the help of animal or static human cell culture models. The main disadvantage of these methods is that the results are hardly transferable to the human physiology. Microfluidic 3D cell cultivation systems for perfused hypoxia assays may overcome this issue since they can mimic the in-vivo situation in the human body much better. Such a Hypoxia-on-a-Chip system was recently developed. The chip system consists of several individually laser-structured layers which are bonded using a hot press or chemical treatment. Oxygen sensing spots are integrated into the system which can be monitored continuously with an optical sensor by means of fluorescence lifetime detection.Hereby presented is the developed hard- and software requiered to control the oxygen content within this microfluidic system. This system forms a closed-loop control system which is parameterized and evaluated.

In this article, an adaptive nonlinear controller is designed to synchronize two uncertain fractional-order chaotic systems using fractional-order sliding mode control. The controller structure and adaptation laws are chosen such that asymptotic stability of the closed-loop control system is guaranteed. The adaptation laws are being calculated from a proper sliding surface using the Lyapunov stability theory. This method guarantees the closed-loop control system robustness against the system uncertainties and external disturbances. Eventually, the presented method is used to synchronize two fractional-order gyro and Duffing systems, and the numerical simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of this method.

Programming control in industrial design is by its nature expert upon an example being Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). Such programmes are unsuitable for children or novices as they cannot understand how to use the programme. This research seeks to present tangible programming for a basic control system in new frameworks in engineering education for children. Such programmes could be for use in kindergartens, primary schools or general teaching where knowledge about basic control is required. Normally open-loop and closed-loop control system programming is taught at university and college level. This may be late as far as acquiring knowledge of basic control systems is concerned. Using tangible programming without a computer but instructions and interface, relay and motor could result in children in kindergartens and primary schools being able to programme open-looped control systems which mix chemicals or closed-loop control systems which control conveyor belts. However, the children would not be able to undertake programming using programmable control in a similar scenario.
